Daddy Long Legs

They are sort of hard to see, but as I was water plants for my Mom, I saw these four grandaddy-long-legs all huddled together on one plant. I've never seen them do that before.

There's A Storm A Brewin'

I'm out feeding calves and it looks like there is one wopper of a storm coming. I'm really not sure I'll be able to get done before it starts pouring. I'm praying that I do, and that there's no lightening!

Thunderstorm!

There's a major thunderstorm going on right now. Lightening, thunder, wind, rain. The power keeps flickering on and off and I can forget about a satellite signal!

Ready to Paint

I've got the paint supplies and two new lamps. I can't wait to get started (and finished) with the livingroom redecorating.

The Cult Bus

As I was driving home, down my county road, I caught a glimps of yellow coming my way. I knew immediately what it was...it was the cult bus! Luckily I was close to a field entrance because they drive way too fast down the road and it would have been hard for that bus and my car to both fit on the road...I probably would have been ran off the road. I'm sure they were headed to thge river. A couple of years ago I was in my yard as they were coming back from the river and there were people sitting on the top of the bus yelling and whooping and taking pictures. Crazy city folk.

Their annual summer retreat is in full swing this weekend and there are hippies and Hindus everywhere. I believe the 'cult', as I call it, is actually a new age Hindu commune. The people that run it wear long orange robes and are Indian (not the Native American kind). They are nice and don't bug anyone, but I hate this summer retreat. There are city people from all over the country, along with the young hippies, that converge right next to my house. They drive up and down the road (that my cats like to nap on) at high speed and have been known to pick all the blackberries along OUR fence line. And there will be at least one night this weekend where I'll be able to hear music and other stuff coming through the woods because they set up speakers outside. It's just all really annoying!

Found!!!

Noel has been missing for over a week. I just found her outside. She's been hurt and her left eye is swollen shut, but I've looked at it and I think it will be fine, but may take her to the vet tomorrow if it looks worse. I'm not sure what kind of animal she's gotten into a fight with. I'm just glad she's back...I had counted her as lost forever.
